Proverbs 4:20

Staying The Course

¹⁹
The way of the wicked is like [deep] darkness;
They do not know over what they stumble. ²⁰ 
My son, pay attention to my words and be willing to learn;
Open your ears to my sayings.
²¹
Do not let them escape from your sight;
Keep them in the center of your heart.
